title: [Postoperative functional evaluation and pharmacological study of Oddi's sphincter by means of cholangiomanometry using a Kehr tube].
abstract: The Authors report their experience of postoperative cholangiomanometry carried out through a T-tube on 19 patients; in 13 of such patients the Oddi's sphincter was intact, while 6 of them underwent sphincterectomy. In 8 patient's a manometric study of the duodenum was associated. They performed both variable flow and pressure and constant flow manometry and their results show that such examination is a reliable test both for the functional evaluation of the surgical procedure, and for the study of the action of various drugs on Oddi's sphincter function and its correlation with duodenal motility.
